CountDown-Control-with-Arc-Shape-Example

This example shows a demo , how to create a countdown timer with ArcShape on android platform in which the arc decreases with the countdown reducing,

We have used two main parts in this code

1)android.os.CountDownTimer instance

new CountDownTimer(totalTime, one_tick_duration_mills) {//also parse it to long

        public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {
          //perform something on tick
        }

        public void onFinish() {
         //perform something after countdown finish


        }
    }
            .start();

and 2) The second part comprises of

i)Creation of bitmap and creating a Canvas from the bitmap.

            bg = Bitmap.createBitmap(320, 320, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
            canvas = new Canvas(bg);

ii)An ArcShape that we draw on canvas after every second.

            rectF = new RectF(0, 0, 320, 320);
            canvas.drawArc(rectF, 0, 12 * (millisUntilFinished) / 1000, true, paint);

iii)Attach bitmap to ImageView using setImageBitmap method.

            imageView.setImageBitmap(bg);
